Not many things are known about his early life which dates back to before King Jarvan I of Demacia, and no one knows where he came from. The only few things that are known is that he was an orphan and had a sister named Ovalia who was two years older then Alarac, and took care of him. One of the only things other then this known in record was that he lived in Demacia. All information after this is according to legends about Alarac, and is known well to only a few.

When Alarac was thirteen, Noxus attacked a small village which he lived in that was under the influence of Demacia. The battle raged on for three days, and with each death he felt stronger. His sister was the opposite, she was afraid of war, and was pale. During the battle Ovalia was killed by one of the two sides, and no one knows which. After the battle Demacia had held on by a thread but was victorious, and Alarac was looking for a way to bring back his sister. He went to shrine of the his religion's lord of the dead, "Evanas" in the jungle, and was hit by a vision of death and destruction, and showed him on top of a blade with blade that had an evil aura to it.

After the vision a sword that he named "Devonic" was in front of him releasing a faint aura. When he touched the blade his eyes turned black, and he found himself raising skeleton warriors to fight for him. He had several visions, one telling him that he needed a worthy soul if he wanted to bring his sister back from the dead, and he killed many, and with each murder, he grew stronger, his blade released a stronger evil aura, but no souls were worthy of those he killed and when he tried to bring back his sister, he summoned an evil magic that he controls to this day. Each soul was not worthy and he killed many until he realized that seventy years had past. When he went back to Demacia and was arrested for his crimes, but rather then kill him, he was out into the League of Legends in fear that if they killed him, the evil would be released.

Playing As Alarac
Use your burst wisely. Get an enemy you need to kill and taunt him and then he his at your mercy.

Use your skeletons to hit low health champions dureing team fights. If you get them out of the fight, you have an advatage.

Playing Against Alarac
Beware of his burst capability and tuants. he has a high sustain and can quickly dispatch enemies in 1v1s. Take him on with numbers and he will be at a disadvantage.

Becareful if you have low health not ot get caught in the AoE of his untimate. The skeletons with target you first.

the more deaths the more damage.
screen randomly turns black and alarac kills any champion(allies included) in the game but has all resistances reduced to 0 and life reduced to 500 for 20 seconds after screen reappears.

Simple and clean yet, I could see some interesting play with this guy. So let's take a look:

Resource: I really like the concept, and feel that it ties the entire champion together. However, I feel like it could be a little dodgy, making the champ nearly useless if he can't get kills, especially on champs. But, thematically, it's really excellent.

Passive: Solid, but the rank 1 regen seems pretty steep. Otherwise, it fits well with the resource by further rewarding him for getting those kills.

Q- CD seems a little long given the cooldown and damage and especially given his resource limitations. The resource alone is enough to warrant a CD closer to 10 sec.

W- Same deal as Q. CD is way too long for such a small amount of damage and steep cost.

E- Again, CD too long.

R- This is good. A cool, threatening ability akin to Tibbers. Unlike most pets they actually seem threatening and the fact that they stick around after Alarac is gone just adds to it.

Overall, it's a well thought out champion in terms of theme. The main problem is his ability cooldowns. Him being so limited by his resource is grounds for what would otherwise be OP abilities having short CDs, so definitely revise that. I might be missing something in regards to why you made them so long and expensive in the first place. If so, please tell me.

Thanks for the reveiw. The main reason for the long CDs, was the fact that he is supposed to be a burst champion, but with high cost i do see what you mean. Part of the reason i decided to make it only possible to get darkness back killing was to encourage and rather imply offensive play. I will take your sugestions into account.
